Nevermore 2009 Line-Up

I've been going to the Nevermore Gothic & Horror Film Festival at the Carolina Theatre in Durham almost every year since it first began back in 2002.

Since then, I have seen many great horror films for the first time on the big screen. The list includes Friday the 13th Part III in 3-D (what's crazy is that unlike our Mixed Tape presentation of this film, theirs actually worked), Army of Darkness, Brotherhood of the Wolf, Donnie Darko, May (went on to become my favorite movie of 2002), Bubba Hotep, and A Tale of Two Sisters.

Now the Durham Carolina has released their line-up for this year's films, and boy do I need to gas up the ol car for a trip to the Bull City.

Here are some highlights:

The Creature from the Black Lagoon in 3-D

I love 3-D, and would look forward to seeing this film in its original intended format.

A quick FYI: Did you know that Clint Eastwood's very first movie role was as an unnamed lab technician in this movie's sequel, Revenge of the Creature?


Frankenstein (1931)

The James Whale classic starring Boris Karloff. Would make for an excellent Universal monster double feature with the film mentioned above.

Alien Raiders

Described as John Carpenter's The Thing meets Sidney Lumet's Dog Day Afternoon, this one appears to be the most polished of all the indie premiers playing at the fest.

Basement Jack


I don't know too much about this U.S. indie horror film, but here's the description the Nevermore peeps gave us:
From the makers of "Evilution" comes this throwback to 80’s classic slasher flicks with a glossy modern sheen! Raised by a looney tunes mother (veteran horror vixen Lynn Lowry) who loved to sadistically electrocute her son every chance she got, Jack now visits homes headed up by blonde-tressed matriarchs who remind him of dear old mom
A throwback to 80's slashers sounds like my cup of tea.

You can read the descriptions of the other premiers playing at this year's Nevermore, as well as purchase tickets here.

I'm sorry that Creature is going to be analygraphic (red and blue lenses) rather than the original polarized process, although I understand that only a couple of theaters in the country can support the latter.

I hope to go to the fest, but it does seem that they've become more of an amateur/microbudget showcase than they were a few years ago. I first saw Brotherhood of the Wolf, The Devil's Backbone and The Host at NeverMore, but they don't appear to be premiering anything that good this year. Where are the foreign films?
